I can't see anything wrong with your markup, but I would like to suggest a mailer script.
code:
<?php
mail("xyz@abc.com", "Contact form data", var_dump($_POST));
?>
This is from the code I used for my science fair script and I found it works nicely it you dont mind the format.
I wrote this code assuming you have php with mail() seeing that you mentioned WordPress.
